More about Ashley

  • 10 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMFT

Pleased to meet you! My name is Ashley Fox. I have 10+ years experience in providing mental health services in a variety of settings, for people of all ages and backgrounds. I have experience in treating clients affected by symptoms of depression, trauma, anxiety, addiction issues, anger management issues, and adjustment to life transition. My therapeutic approach is a combination of solution focused, cognitive behavioral, and motivational interviewing.

I believe that therapy is a collaborative process and a journey, and that the client is already the expert in their own lives, and that the therapist's role is to help the client "unlock" the skills and resources that they already have potential to possess. My goal is to help my client develop the confidence and skills to address whatever may be distressing them, improve relationships, and live their best possible lives.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
